Lamp revamp and some randoms

Look what came in the mail!

My BirchBox! I'm a total product junkie, so I think it's crazy fun to get some great samples every month to try out.

Some fun stuff, they must have known I had just thrown my empty Bare Minerals container away that morning because they sent me a nice size sample of the Sunforgettable Mineral Powder by Colorscience. I've been a Bare Minerals fan for years now, but the one thing I don't like is how it can itch when you sweat and I have not experienced that with the Colorscience so I may be making a switch. Also loving the Jouer Lip enchancer\conditoner!

I found a semi-cute lamp at Salvation Army....

It was in good shape and only 30 bucks, now it wasn't fabulous enough so with a little Krylon spray paint and some houndstooth fabric....

I moved the old, ugly, plain one to my husbands man cave :)

Ok one last random. I love Ranch. Like back in the day I used to eat it with EVERYTHING. Then I started to watch my calories and workout, do you KNOW how many miles you would have to run to burn off real dressing???? A lot. So anyways while I was at Sprouts, kinda like Whole Foods but cheaper, I came across this...

Fat-free AND calorie free dressing, I was skeptical since most taste like serious crap but I bought some of the Honey Dijon anyways. SO DELISH! Love love love, I have a dipping sauce for mysuper delishchicken tenders! I went back today and bought the Ranch and a Miracle no calorie mayo, we shall see if it's all just as good. I don't know how this has nothing in it and tastes so yummy!

I'm going to leave you guys with my new favorite work out song. Download it and sweat baby!

LMFAO Sexy and I Know it. {uh apparently I don't know how to get a video from youtube to blogger on my MAC! Sorry 'bout that}

I love the lamp makeover!! I sooo need some color in my house now that I've tamed down the odd colored walls. I was going to do some navy blue but I do love some bright blue!!! Now I just need something to spray paint....

ohh the lamp turned out adorable! and i love love love sprouts! we shop there all of the time, so great for all of my allergy needs lol. and seriously i LOVE that song!! its totally on my playlist too!
